Dems to stall Senate in ObamaCare protest

Senate Democrats will move to freeze the chamber late Monday to protest the GOP’s closed-door process to repeal and replace ObamaCare, a senior Democratic aide told CNN.

Democrats reportedly plan on rejecting routine requests to let the Senate function, including scheduling votes and allowing committees to meet for extended hearings.

“If Republicans won’t relent and debate their healthcare bill in the open for the American people to see, then they shouldn’t expect business as usual in the Senate,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Monday, according to The Hill.

“[Republicans] are drafting this bill in secret because they’re ashamed of it, plain and simple,” he added.
